Here at Lake Amador we have a large campground consisting of 113 sites located on a 100 acre portion of the facility that is surrounded by shade giving Oaks. Most campsites have running potable water, some have electricity and many sites are located on the waters edge when the lake is full. There are hot showers and flush toilets located throughout the campground and some sites located by swim pond also have free WIFI access!
Lake Amador also has a 73 site Deluxe RV Park on a private peninsula. All sites located in the RV Park have Full hookups and FREE WIFI. Some sites are reserved year round for residents and as vacation spots. All open RV sites are first come first served so call prior to your visit to check availability.

Camping is always fun, but as for the grounds and accommodations here, it was a bit rough. Not a whole lot of tree cover, and a lage portion of the campsites are on a steep grade, forcing you to break a sweat on the way to the restroom (flooded toilets, no soap, real showers available though). The big attraction aside from the fishing lake itself is a swim pond. Complete with a waterside that is manned by an army of camping children. Good for sunbathing. The "quiet time at 10pm" and "dogs, only on leash" rules posted everywhere aren't enforced or respected, but it is family friendly in the daytime. Cool Cafe with helpful staff ladies and even live music on certain weekends. Overall: 3 ☆
Very nice place! Quick response when calling, very friendly staff, and reasonable prices. The campsites are very private and spacious. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. Will definitely be coming back.
We had a great time! It rained a little bit for a labor day weekend, regardless it was relaxing, the shower water was hot the views were amazing, 10/10 will return.
We had a blast camping here. Tons of great campsites. We fished off the bank of our campsite. They have a swimming pond for the kids, a yummy cafe, and great service. Definitely a great place to fish. I caught two 3 pound monster Bass. They have trophy trout, catfish, bluegill and carp fish. Go camp here fun place for the whole family.
My husband and I came here for the 1st time today and it won't be our last! Staff were all super friendly & helpful. I caught a nice sized catfish too! Great place that gave me some much needed peace and enjoyment and we are looking forward to coming back!
